I'm trying to get better at recording...even with my shitty microphone I want it to sound as good as possible.

this is a song called In Her Eyes by Shawn Mullins

The recording quality isnt great as you said, but this is really somethin. you have a great voice, maybe make it a bit louder in mixing. The doubling is really cool. I was also really impressed by the guitar, i didnt know you could play like that.

This is by far your best work yet, keep on workin and keep on postin!

(do you have an acous/elec or just acous?)

I Honestly loved it. The recording quality really didnt take anything away from it, you did a fantastic job. I'm trying to find the tab for this song, but I'm not having any luck, you think you could help me out??

Also, I think you have a great voice. It reminded me a little bit of Shannon Worrel's voice from some of the songs Dave did with her on the " 'Till we Dance away" compilation

good job.

the song choice was not my favorite thing that you've done. but as usual your guitar is great and your harmonies kick ass. you have such a strong voice it's crazy. great job.

Great job, Sarah.

It sounds like you've really made the best of your microphone. I love how you don't try to do too much with your voice but you pull through on whatever the song demands. You're really talented, Sarah. The harmonies were great. Nothing else to really say about those. You're also the best female guitar player I've heard. Sounds like an alternate tuning - is it?

While I think you've done a great job with your microphone, I think your talent is begging you to invest in some quality equipment. You deserve it. Keep up the good work.

Be excellent to one another.
